Chargers reach playoffs, beat Foles, overmatched Colts 20-3

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The Los Angeles Chargers tried to keep their postgame playoff celebration private.

No such luck. After shaking hands and walking off the field in Indianapolis, players jogged through a tunnel to blaring music, high-fives and hugs and headed into a first-time locker room scene for many of these Chargers - a playoff party.

Austin Ekeler scored on two 1-yard runs and Los Angeles clinched its first postseason berth since 2018, intercepting Nick Foles three times to beat the overmatched Colts 20-3 on Monday night.

“We’re in it, now let’s go win it!” one player screamed before reporters were allowed into the locker room.
